I am trying to upgrade from Richfaces 3.3.3 to 4.3.2. I have an issue where the tootip loads but without data. bascially I had an listener attached to tooltip which is suppose to load the data but that listener is not being invoked after migration. I need a listener on the server side as I load the tool tip data only when somebody hovers over the comoponent.

What I found is the tooltip works like popup, RF place them in the view root. so your tooltip is not in a form, and tooltip has not domattachement attribute. so if you want invoke some action, you need put your tooltip outer of the form, and give it another form.
